Microbrasserie Les Trois Mousquetaires - Doppelbock

Microbrasserie Les Trois Mousquetaires - Doppelbock

Microbrasserie Les Trois Mousquetaires - Doppelbock

  • Style: Doppelbock
  • ABV: approx. 8.0%
  • Serving Temperature: 45-50° F
  • Suggested Glassware: Mug, Pilsner Glass or Goblet
  • Country: Canada
So here’s some straight talk: we’re not quite sure what this beer will taste like when you get it. Why? Because it was still maturing when we lined it up. We were sent an early sample of the beer, still immature, but we loved it. We felt it could only become better by the time it reaches your door. We also tasted a slightly different version of this doppelbock while visiting Canada in 2008 and based on that, knew we couldn’t miss with this one. O...

The Lion Brewery - Stegmaier Brewhouse Bock

The Lion Brewery - Stegmaier Brewhouse Bock

The Lion Brewery - Stegmaier Brewhouse Bock

  • ABV: 6.20%
  • Serving Temperature: 45-50° F
  • Suggested Glassware: Mug, Stein, or Pilsner Glass
  • Malts: 2-Row Pale, Munich
  • Country: United States
A traditional style bock beer, the Stegmaier Brewhouse Bock pours an attractive crystal clear dark reddish copper color. Carbonation is low to moderate, so we recommend an aggressive pour to build a sufficient head and unlock the traditional bock aromas. Look for an inviting toasty maltiness on the nose with bready, biscuit-like notes and only a hint of hops. Flavor-wise, this beer is all about the malt, which is just what we expect from a well-m...

Santa Fe Brewing Company - Santa Fe Pale Ale

Santa Fe Brewing Company - Santa Fe Pale Ale

Santa Fe Brewing Company - Santa Fe Pale Ale

  • ABV: 5.40%
  • Int’l Bittering Units (IBUs): 38
  • Serving Temperature: 40-45° F
  • Suggested Glassware: Pint Glass
  • Hops: Cluster, Cascade, Willamette, Crystal
  • Malts: Carastan, Rahr 2-Row, Crystal
  • Country: United States
Santa Fe Pale Ale pours brassy in color with a sedimentary haze provided by a small amount of yeast left in the bottle to naturally condition the beer. It will be capped by a big cappuccino-like frothy head when poured with vigor. On the nose, look for notes of honey and floral qualities, with some citrus notes, leaning toward tropical fruits (think mango), and a fair amount of spicy hop character. Expect a rather nectary flavor, with floral, hon...

The Lion Brewery Ceylon - Lion Imperial Lager

The Lion Brewery Ceylon - Lion Imperial Lager

  • ABV: 8.50%
  • Serving Temperature: 40-45° F
  • Suggested Glassware: Pint Glass, Flute Glass
  • Country: Sri Lanka
This Imperial Lager pours a light-to-medium straw color with a healthy mane of a head that’s rather plentiful for a lager of this ABV (higher alcohol content can kill head retention, especially in lagers). You can expect to take in notes of fresh cut grass, apples and caramel malt sweetness on the nose, with faint impressions of Scotch whisky. This lion’s alcohol content remains docile, but be warned, it will prey on you as it lurks—so be alert! ...

Santa Fe Brewing Company - State Pen Porter

Santa Fe Brewing Company - State Pen Porter

  • ABV: 6.40%
  • Int’l Bittering Units (IBUs): 35
  • Serving Temperature: 45-55° F
  • Suggested Glassware: Pint Glass
  • Hops: Cluster, Cascade, Hallertau
  • Malts: Chocolate, Carastan, Rahr 2-Row
  • Country: United States
If they served this stuff at the New Mexico State Penitentiary, we’d have more people trying to get locked up. Thankfully, you can get it without first needing a record. The nose presents a porter lover’s dream: richly roasty, raisiny, pruny, with coffee-like notes capped by citrus and apple notes, and a faint whisper of chalk dust. That chalky character is perfectly appropriate in the wide range of possible flavors in porter, and serves to make ...

Pennsylvania Brewing Company - Penn Kaiser Pilsner

Pennsylvania Brewing Company - Penn Kaiser Pilsner

  • ABV: 4.50%
  • Int’l Bittering Units (IBUs): 45
  • Serving Temperature: 40-45° F
  • Suggested Glassware: Pilsner Glass
  • Hops: Various Hallertau Varietals, Perle
  • Malts: 2-Row Pale, Pilsen, Dextrin
  • Country: United States
Now, this just in: out of 472 breweries who entered 2,052 brews in 75 beer style categories, Kaiser Pils bested 43 others to win the German-Style Pilsener category at the ’08 Great American Beer Festival. Expect the classic spicy, noble hoppiness and crisp grain notes that one expects from a German-style pilsner. Bready malts, with a hint of toastiness, wash over the palate with notes of grassy hops and a sprightly mouthfeel. Finishes with an ear...

The Lion Brewery Ceylon - Lion Stout

The Lion Brewery Ceylon - Lion Stout

The Lion Brewery Ceylon - Lion Stout

  • ABV: 8.00%
  • Serving Temperature: 45-50° F
  • Suggested Glassware: Snifter, Oversized Wine Glass or Pint Glass
  • Country: Sri Lanka
Sri Lanka just might be the only country in which every brewery makes a stout. Granted there are only about three brewing companies, but this is still an impressive commentary on the sophistication of regional palates. While Lion Stout is technically designated as a tropical stout, it is a hearty, traditional stout presenting the typically aromatic, chocolaty, coffee- and toffee-accented notes of a bold European or American strong stout. Note the...

Klein Duimpje Huisbrouwerij - Erik De Noorman

  • Style: Barleywine
  • ABV: 9.00%
  • Serving Temperature: 50-55° F
  • Suggested Glassware: Snifter
  • Country: Netherlands
Is it just us or do Dutch brewers have a need to be clever in their beer names? Beer after beer that we try from The Netherlands (and other northern European countries) has had some intellectually wise-ass name. Eric De Noorman is the name of a fictional comic strip character authored by Hans Georg Kresse from 1946-1964. The stories chronicle the various escapades of the eponymous Viking king. Dutch Brewer Erik Bouman seems to have written himsel...
